A series of comic panels from the comic strip THE OTHER END featuring a generic guy speaking to the reader. Hey there! I'm Paxton from Facebook or Google or whatever, here to give you an important message about generations. Fact is, I'd like to speak to all you boomers and Gen X Karens. Do not trust the young!! They're lazy and socialists and they want to destroy everything you hold dear! Next, to all you Milennials and Gen Z champs... Do not trust the old! They're MAGA monsters and they want to destroy your future! Don't you all feel better! You see, the important thing is that you pick which generation you wanna hate and focus all your attention on that. Because generations definitely exist and aren't meaningless constructs, and we're not stealing your data. Don't vote!

A reminder for the start of 2026: Tech companies are NOT your friend. They exist to make money - literally, that is their purpose.

If you are looking for evidence that students need more #TechnologyLiteracy instruction, send them to print something from Canva.

Pop-ups that explain why something won't print?

For fools! (Based on what I observed of students' interactions w/ the computer.)
